best way to get at the spark plugs is by removing the front tires and reaching thru the wheel well to remove the spark plugs

Driver's side plugs are accessible without removing the tire. Passenger side plugs need the tire and splash guard out of the way (It's just held in with plastic "snap-plugs")

Unfortunately I can't help with the starter; I haven't had to change mine. Are the wires not attached with a small wire harness and connector?
